| In a report today, a White House task force said it wanted to see the number of honeybee deaths drop to 15% during the cold winter months when bees are particularly vulnerable. The task force laid out a multipronged strategy to research the problem and to improve and expand honeybee habitats. Winter loss rates reached 23% last winter and reached 42% for the 12-months ending in April, according to the Agriculture Department earlier this month. Among the many causes scientists are researching is the role of pesticides. | |||||||
